Here's what a typical Storm Damage Roof Repair visit after a Knierim storm event includes.
We check every slope methodically for impact marks that could compromise the shingle's remaining lifespan.
We check shingle tabs and seal lines across the whole roof, not just the visibly missing sections.
Tree limbs and wind-blown debris can crack decking as well as shingles, so we check underneath the surface damage too.
Proper documentation before you file can make the difference between a fast approval and a drawn-out dispute.
We scope the repair to match what actually happened during the storm, not a generic estimate.
Gutters torn loose by wind are reattached and resloped as part of a full storm damage visit.
Describe what happened and what you're seeing, and we'll get an inspection scheduled.
We check for hail bruising, lifted shingles, and debris impact across the full roof.
Photo documentation and a written quote are provided in the same visit.
We follow up to make sure the repair holds through the next storm season.
They walked us through what was worth claiming and what wasn't, no pressure either way.
